What is being done to solve this problem?

Since endangerment has became a major problem across the world, there have been many laws formed to help prevent further extinction.These laws are as followed: Bald and Gold Eagle Protection Act, Migratory Bird Treaty Act, Lacey Act, Marine Mammal Protection Act, Airborne Hunting Act, National Wildlife Refuge System Administration Act of 1966, Endangered Species Act, Antarctic Conservation Act, African Elephant Conservation Act, and the Wild Bird Conservation Act of 1992.

These laws were formed to regulate import, export and sale of wildlife. There are also laws that protect species from various forms of inhumane treatment, including capturing and killing. (http://www.endangeredspecie.com/protect.htm)
